Core Memory Explained and Demonstrated
Ferrite core memory was the dominant computer memory technology from the 1950s to the late 1970s. Before we delve into the repair of our Apollo AGC core memory, I thought it would be good to explain how they work, as they are very different from modern semiconductor memory.
